The perceptions of 163 Bowie State College students concerning differences in people based on race, gender, and physical disability were studied during fall 1987. While the majority of respondents perceived discrimination in the United States and in Prince George's County, Maryland, a minority believed that there was discrimination on the Bowie campus. Respondents viewed slightly over one-third of the faculty as competent. The majority agreed that race, religion, or handicap do not make one characteristically smarter or ignorant. The majority of respondents also agreed that race, religion, or handicap do not make one characteristically more athletic; however, 27.6% said the handicapped are less athletic. The majority also indicated that they do not avoid people based on gender, handicap, religion, race, or age. Some prefer multi-racial and multi-religious environments and some even prefer to interact with the handicapped. The survey questions and responses for each question are appended. (SW)
